And the chip dren who have not yet learned the disfavor that goes with the name "goose" will reach for gooseberry tart before any other, but the name "goose" puts all grown ups on their guard. And now comes a great phil- ogist who proves the name is a vulgar and ignorant mistake. The berry is one that should be known as the Saintsberry---and the berry of the most beloved of saints at that. Mr. Fox Talbot gives the following remarkable account of the origin of the name "gooseberry"; Gooseberries are called in German, Johannis-beer- en, that is, "John's berries," because they ripen about the feast of St. John. St. John is called in Holland, St. Jan, and the fruit is there called "Jans- beeren. ' Now this word has been— centuries ago—corrupted into "Gans- beeren," of which our English word Gooseberries is a literal translation; Gans in German signifying a goose.

In planting a tree to make it grow —and there should be no other aim— the tree should be made 'just as com- fortable in its new environment as possible.

And then there were other reasons why he would not include his love for Judith with the things he consulted Azuma about. It would have seemed almost like disloyalty. 'Yet he had felt that she did not like his marrying, that she foresaw with some reason an end of their strange alliance of friendship, an end of the long evenings when he either told her of his plans or asked her counsel, or she had sat crouched on the hearth rug and listened to his playing or seemed to dream from sheer silence which opened out into each other on ' occasional outbursts of confidential while he wrote. the same spacious floor, she had felt! intimacy.
